The Sunset Drive In was built in 1949, and operated by Ken Bentfield. Over the years the drive in, although still functioning, has became dilapidated and worn down. These are just a few images that express the need for the Drive In Movie Theater to be revitalized.
The image above is an exterior perspective to express the changes that I had wish to incorporate in my design.
Moving further I began experimenting with light quality of the space.
Also examining how the space would look from many perspectives and experimenting with light quality to that would serve as a way finding device.
With this image I wanted to express the orientation and the layout of site, also with the orientation of the vehicles.
As I began exploring light options I had imagined the exterior lighting would become dim as the movie began, allowing for a way finding device that wouldn't disrupt ones vision, and when there was an intermission, or break the lights would be shown full resolution.
Materials selections I have decided to work with is Sensitile. The reflective material, manipulates lights creating wonderful shade and shadow opportunities, and creates a sense of movement, as I had wished to accomplish with the spaces.
Also another material that is being explored are Armstrong ceiling panels as they will serve to absorb and direct sound.
